What is purging ?
- it is a process of "worsening of acne before it gets better". This is the initial reaction that occurs when you start using acne treatments like chemical peels, retinoids, BHAs (beta-hydroxy acid), glycolic acid, salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide or those treatments that make you peel. Acne treatments unclog pores, kill acne causing bacteria, control excess sebum production, get rid of dead skin cells. In the process of unclogging pores, they accelerates acne to come out earlier than you expect due to the exfoliation process and this might occur as a white/black head or inflamed red pimple.
- And yes I experienced it. I was about to give up, I felt stressed about it and self conscious. But I gave it a try for 10 days.
4days after I use acne treatment August 9, 2015 morning |
See how bad that is. It was embarrassing to go outside. I refused any invitations and cancelled my errands appointment because of that. I didn't want to go out.

My blemishes are not so angry in this pic.
August 10, 2015 morning |
As you can see the redness is subsiding.

Getting better...
August 12, 2015 1am onwards |
Wow! I can feel and see the result.
August 13, 2015 morning |
After almost 10 days I can see improvement on my skin. I decided to just continue and be consistent with this acne treatment.
I am still experiencing little red bumps but not as much as when I was on purging process. Maybe two or three little red bumps and some blackheads that came out and healed on their own.

I am using Fairness and Flawless Acne Cure Lite treatment. It cost me 255pesos here in Cebu. On their site it says that the package includes PowerHouse Noni Soap and Blemish Doctor Astringent. But when I bought it, it came with Koji-Care toner inside the package as well. Maybe its a promotional offering or just a mistake.

Blemish Doctor |
Blemish Doctor astringent , you can buy it separately as well. This can be harsh when you use twice a day so I suggest maybe just using it only at night. It stings like hell if you use it twice for two days. So I guess listen to yourself as well if you can't take it just use it once a day.
PowerHouse Noni Soap |
Don't forget to put sunblock everyday.
Koji-Care Toner |
I use it every morning after 10 days of using acne treatment.
Overall verdict, I found this product very good because it does the job and its affordable. And I would recommend it to a friend. But there is no magic in terms of making yourself beautiful in your own eyes or to other people. The key as well is to eat healthy, sleep right and drinks lots of water.
